sigmashake-docs — Paging policy

Who responds to a problem with the docs site, and how. Rotation in oncall.toml.

This policy is best-effort. No paging vendor is connected. No 24/7 coverage is promised. No acknowledgement time and no resolve time is promised. One role, the ISMS owner, responds.

Note 2026-10-11: an earlier version of this page described PagerDuty paging with a 10-minute, 24/7 acknowledgement. No PagerDuty integration exists. That text is removed.

Severity matrix​

SeverityDefinitionResponse
P1Customer-visible outage (site unreachable or 5xx for all users, security incident, data-loss event)The ISMS owner triages under the incident response plan (triage target 1 hour, best effort)
P2Customer-visible degradation (slow pages, one region failing)The ISMS owner reviews in normal working time
P3Trend or warning (latency trend, dependency CVE high)The ISMS owner reviews in normal working time
P4Informational (no deploy-completed or weekly SLO notice is generated today)No action

What counts as P1​

  1. Sustained 5xx responses for the whole site
  2. Any data-loss event recorded
  3. Any security incident

What does NOT count​

  • Single 5xx response
  • Cron job duration longer than expected (the sweep is allowed to take longer)
  • Cron job missed at the expected time (Cloudflare can shift a cron by about 15 minutes)

After-hours rules​

No after-hours coverage is promised. Work on a P1 starts when the ISMS owner sees the report.

Escalation​

The ISMS owner is the only role that responds today. No escalation path and no automatic re-page exist. The escalation = "self" setting in oncall.toml means the same role handles every level.
